Well they're close in that they're about 3/4 of a rate away from each other but the Kyosho yellow (2.95) or green (3.16) rear is much closer to the Tekno red (2.93) rear.

Do you mean they "feel" close? As in when you compress them in your hand?

Yes by hand just to compare them. I borrowed the lt blue rear springs put them on the handle of my nut driver with the tekno red rears and compressed them. But maybe thats a bad way to compair. Basically what i wanted to try is running the same spring rate as the tekno yellow front and orange rears. But use kyosho springs that are more progressive and that are very close to those tekno ones by feel in hand. Hopefully this makes sense. I due appreciate all the help btw and info!!!

I know its been a while....but I have a buddy that put kyosho shocks on his eb48 .....he just had to use some longer shock ends......

So you could run those inserts with kyosho shocks if they dont make em for the TEKNO shocks yet!

HEADS UP Racers..........Tekno has another adjustment for us. When you order a new set of the inner hinge pin adjusters they have added a 1/2 deg. also. I just got mine with my latest order........

Now that would be cool, most likely would turn out lite purple too.
